Highland Fin Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Hi all, Ive just bought myself a Lima 156 in the old orange and black SPT livery. Its noted that the bodies have some wear and tear and I've thought I could always swap these out in the future if needs be, since there are plenty bodyshells that come up on eBay.I was wondering though, it seems the hornby 156 is very similar to the Lima one, is this a case of the same tooling per some other models? What I really want to know is the body the same, so if I bought a hornby bodyshell would it fit?Just hypothetical for now, thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Spare Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 The Service Sheet for the Hornby class 156 shows 4 clips along each side of the underframe so if your Lima unit is the same, it is a fair bet there is interchangeability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Fin Posted May 16, 2020 Author Share Posted May 16, 2020 Thank you that's a good point, I'll study the service sheet diagram against the lima model when it's delivered and should answer the question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
